Answer:
A = 4200 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the formula for area is
A = l*w
We need to have the same units
convert yd to ft
1 yd = 3ft
Multiply each by 70
70 yds = 210 ft
A = 210 *20
A = 4200 ft^2
There is a not so well-known theorem that solves this problem.
The theorem is stated as follows:
"Each angle bisector of a triangle divides the opposite side into segments proportional in length to the adjacent sides" (Coxeter & Greitzer)
This means that for a triangle ABC, where angle A has a bisector AD such that D is on the side BC, then
BD/DC=AB/AC
Here either
BD/DC=6/5=AB/AC, where AB=6.9,
then we solve for AC=AB*5/6=5.75,
or
BD/DC=6/5=AB/AC, where AC=6.9,
then we solve for AB=AC*6/5=8.28
Hence, the longest and shortest possible lengths of the third side are
8.28 and 5.75 units respectively.
So when you have data given this kind of form... you should convert to decimal first.
So that would be:
a ≈ 2.12
b = 3.5
c = 2.5
Now just place the simple perimeter formula, and sum all sides.
Answer:
B AND B Because they are the only awnsers that make grammatical sense.
